Blooming trees against gray skies -- that's what spring in Victoria looks like for days at a time.  But the real beauty is when the blossoms show their brilliance against a bright blue sky.
Victoria is known for having the earliest blooms in Canada.  But not this year.  There's a heat wave in the east and we're getting the cold, blossom-retarding  winds.  But still there are those pretty pink trees everywhere reminding me that spring is here. 
I'm doing the A to Z challenge this month.  There are more than 1700 bloggers taking part.  Click on the badge at the top right to go to a list linking to their daily posts relating to the alphabet.  It's amazing the variety of blogs you can see there.
